Description
This is a reproduction of “Barnard Castle” by Joseph Mallord William Turner of 1826. This master artist was one of the foremost English Romantic painters of all time. He was controversial in his own day but he raised the art of landscape to rival that genre of historical painting. He not only created wonderful oils, but he also was a master of watercolors and printing. He created this wonderful work at the age of seventy-one. He had receive formal training at the Royal Academy of Art from the age of fourteen and within eight years he was receiving enough patronage to insure his career in art. He died in 1851 in London. Set on a high rock above the River Tees, Barnard Castle takes its name from its 12th century founder, Bernard de Balliol. It was later developed by the Beauchamp family and then passed into the hands of Richard III. With fantastic views over the Tees Gorge this fortress sits on the fringe of an attractive working market town also known as ‘Barney’ so there is plenty to do for families on a day out. Try and spot Richard's boar emblem carved above a window in the inner ward or visit the 'sensory garden' of scented plants and tactile objects. This masterpiece is in the Tate Gallery in London and is a watercolor on paper measuring 25 by 30.3 centimeters.
